I took the Guild Wars 2 folder from my one computer, which contains the Gw2.exe, Gw2.tmp and Gw2.dat files and put them onto my portable harddrive. Then I transferred them onto my other computer to a newly created folder… C:\Program Files (x86)\Guild Wars 2. The problem is that when I click to run the exe file, the launcher starts and begins to download the entire game all over again, all 200,000 some files. Am I not transferring the client correctly or did I miss other files needed?

Did you interrupt the transfer? Corrupted on the new location?

I think I know why it wasn’t working. My SSD BSOD’d when I was transferring the file, so it got corrupted. I turned my PC back on and the weird thing is when I went to copy it again, since it didn’t move, it appeared to copy in 1 second. I just recopied it though and it seems fine, thank you
